contents

i. lessons in frailty
dear moon
reflections of the moon
the weight of water
in my mother’s womb
lessons in frailty
handling paper dolls
a story about winter
one day you will encounter a house flooded
the stone mother
surrender to memory
softly: how to evaporate
after, life
the textures of silence
ii. language less learning
broken/pipelines
raw
Sonnet MCLXXXI
sculpt-her
the impermanence of human sculptures
entering the age of doubt
w(hole): self-medication
when we banish tongues
learning to say i love you
language less learning
crazy eight: keeping pace
what john wayne couldn’t have known
ten little indians
sometimes i dream a reservation resides inside me
intertribal
iii. forbidden acts
forbidden acts
the war on words
love in a time of blood quantum
when angels speak of love i’m pretty sure they didn’t mean
patrick would never say the word love
everything you need to know about relationships can be found in a restroom stall
love on paper
psalm of surrender
somewhere being written
excavation
iv. the order of things
the order of things
please remember me
teaching the riff
if there is something to
some kind of dying
post-flight assessment: the call of urgency
awakening: you died while i was sleeping
never meant to touch
unchained melody
measure by measure: the body begs
consider the assemblage of a longing
the significance of a hanging
the milky way escapes my mouth
we were once two stars
winter—birds of flight
back to the beginning

I have to tell you something, I said.
I’m not going to lie. I have to tell you.
I have this God-shaped hole in my heart,
and I think you do...
